Where a judge, on an oral application, gave leave to appeal, but limited it to certain issues, it was not for the party on the later substantive appeal to try again to re-open issues which that judge had considered and excluded. Once leave to appeal had been granted after first written and then oral submissions, it was not for a brother judge to re-open the questions decided. The judge hearing the appeal which had been permitted did not himself have jurisdiction to revisit the earlier leave application.
